Atlus has been taking to YouTube to share videos highlighting the upcoming game Shin Megami Tensei V’s available demons, and for today’s daily demon video, we have a look at Thunderbird.
Check out the video and some extra details below.
Thunderbird is an Avian race demon that made its debut in Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers. Since then it has made appearances in several games in the Devil Summoner, Shin Megami Tensi, and Persona series. Here is some more information on the lore and history behind Thunderbird ahead of its appearance in Shin Megami Tensei V, courtesy of the Megami Tensei Wiki:
The Thunderbird is a legendary creature found in Native American folklore. It’s considered a “supernatural” bird of power and strength. It is especially important, and richly depicted, in the art, songs and oral histories of many Pacific Northwest Coast cultures, and is found in various forms among the peoples of the American Southwest and Great Plains. Thunderbirds were major components of the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex of American prehistory. The Thunderbird’s name comes from the common belief that the beating of its enormous wings causes thunder and stirs the wind.
Shin Megami Tensei V is scheduled to arrive on Switch on November 12. You can find previous coverage for the game, including daily demon videos, here.
